May
3 Allied made its first and only purchase of inventory for the period on May 3 for 2,000 units at a price of $11 cash per unit (for a total cost of $22,000).
5 Allied sold 1,000 of the units in inventory for $15 per unit (invoice total: $15,000) to Macy Co. under credit terms 2/10, n/60. The goods cost Allied $11,000.
7 Macy returns 100 units because they did not fit the customer’s needs (invoice amount: $1,500). Allied restores the units, which cost $1,100, to its inventory.
8 Macy discovers that 100 units are scuffed but are still of use and, therefore, keeps the units. Allied gives a price reduction (allowance) and credits Macy's accounts receivable for $700 to compensate for the damage.
15 Allied receives payment from Macy for the amount owed on the May 5 purchase; payment is net of returns, allowances, and any cash discount.
